I don’t know what other organs could be damaged but do go for a thorough medical check up to as...more

Choose a date within the next two weeks, so you have enough time to prepare without losing your motivation to quit. If you mainly smoke at work, quit on the weekend, so you have a few days to adjust to the change.
Let your friends and family in on your plan to quit smoking and tell them you need their support and encouragement to stop. Look for a quit buddy who wants to stop smoking as well. You can help each other get through the rough times.

Dear. If you feels that your father cheats family members, it shows that your father smokes little. Believe your father and love him. He will reduce and stop smoking for you. Urine test can reveal the nicotine presence. Take care.
